Fred reference images featuring my makeshift light booth
Finding good reference images for octopus to use in design and modelling has proven difficult, so had to make my own
Kinda cool how if you put a 3d printed object in a controlled lighting space -in this case similar to global illumination- it becomes very apparent that it was originally computationally rendered, highlights the digital world's limitations of converting into this reality. Personally I find that limitation very charming and will probably find it to be nostalgic when 3d printer tech is more advanced
